Pyramid Air price hike. Uugghh.

So in December I ordered Air Arms diabolo field heavies @ $13.99 and the lights at $12.99. Now they're $16.99 and $14.99 respectively. I made sizeable order yesterday and noticed. Has anyone else? 



They still do buy 3 get one free though and also our AGN discount, so they're still the cheapest I'd say. Does anyone have a better solution for ordering bulk pellets? Thanks for any feed back. 
 
Supply and demand are going to always affect prices of goods, as well as the fact that the USA is currently literally printing trillions of dollars of money out of thin air. That’s called hyperinflation and it it the reason prices of everything are skyrocketing in US dollars. Prices aren’t actually going up, the value of our US dollar is going down with each stimulus bill that passes. 
The only way for goods to remain the same price in a hyperinflated economy is for quality or quantity to be reduced.
My worthless advice is spend money on tangible goods now before it is de-valued further..(i.e. prices go up further). 
 
PA -- AGD -- AOA ..bump the price just because they wanted more money.. they are almost $4 more than trenier outdoors...if the price increases due overseas shipping..trenier could not be able to keep giving the same price...they have marked the pellet at the top of the retail price...it all have to do with profits n the shipping company they chose business with .

How are Trenier’s shipping costs? Do they have seasonal sales? Frequent coupon codes? Discounts?

Jeff only carries half a dozen brands but it's all the better stuff and always priced quite a bit lower than pretty much everyone else...as in $3 to $5 a tin lower than everyone else. Probably why I've never seen your much wanted coupon codes, discounts and such. If you're planning on buying in bulk, call and see what kind of deal he might be able to make for you. He's a great guy to deal with, beyond top notch Customer Service. Orders come very well packaged and he ships USPS Flat Rate so everything I've ever ordered has been at my door 4 days after I ordered it.

I like Trenier and order from him, but when strategically ordering they are not $4 cheaper per can. That is what it shows when just looking at the price of a can. They just don’t monkey around with the buy 3 get one free mess. If you maximize your order with PA and use the buy 3 get 1 and your 10% off, they are about the same as Trenier, and usually just a touch cheaper than Trenier for me. So let’s not pretend that all those other places can just drop prices $4 to match some magical deal Jeff is giving us that nobody else is. He just chooses not to play the discount game, and you automatically get the discount.

Where Trenier does win, is that you get the discount no matter what you buy, and you don’t have to maximize the specifics of what you are buying. Because PA gives the free can on the cheapest item, your 4 cans need to be the same price. Trenier doesn’t do that so that is where you can save a few bucks overall with Trenier. Jeff’s shipping is extremely fast, usually the same day, and is very reasonable.
